Summary - Barchington Avenue, Torquay, TQ2 TQ2 8LB
3 bed 1 bath Detached Bungalow
Single-storey three-bed fixer with garage and garden near local schools and seafront links.
Chain-free detached bungalow on a large plot
Chain-free three-bedroom detached bungalow on a large plot in a quiet Torquay street, offered with immediate possession for a buyer ready to refurbish. The layout is single-storey and straightforward: porch, hall, bright lounge, kitchen with utility, three bedrooms (two doubles plus a third with garden access), family bathroom, and an attached single garage. Double glazing and gas central heating are already in place.
The property requires full refurbishment throughout, offering clear scope to modernise the kitchen and bathroom, redecoration, and improve energy performance. For a buyer willing to invest, there is strong potential to increase value through sympathetic updating and kerb-appeal improvements. The compact 730 sq ft footprint and single-storey plan make it especially suitable for downsizers or small families seeking one-floor living.
Location is practical: local shops, good primary schools, and green spaces are within easy reach, with reliable transport links to Torquay town centre and the seafront. Broadband and mobile signal are strong, crime levels are low and there is no recorded flood risk, but the wider area scores as relatively deprived which may affect long-term resale comparables.
Notable legal and practical points: the sale is freehold and chain free, Council Tax band D, and restrictive covenants apply (including limits on running a business from the property). Buyers should budget for comprehensive renovation works and allow for any planning or covenant constraints before undertaking extensions or changes of use.
